It is our preference and it is our hope to do this together with you, our friends here in Europe.
For the United States and Europe.
Stop.
We want to do it together with you, with a Europe that is proud of its heritage and of its history.
with a Europe that has the spirit of creation and liberty that sent ships out into unchartered seas and birthed our civilization, with a Europe that has the means to defend itself and the will to survive.
We should be proud of what we achieved together in the last century, but now we must confront and embrace the opportunities of a new one, because yesterday is over.
The future is inevitable, and our destiny together awaits.
Thank you.
It's been very difficult for anyone to do real deals with Iran because we're dealing with radical Shia clerics who are making theological decisions, not geopolitical ones.
But let's see what happens.

We all hope it works out.
The United States' interest is to see the war end, and we want to do what we can to make it end.
We're the only nation on Earth that apparently can get both sides to the table to talk.
But the euphoria of this triumph led us to a dangerous delusion.
that we had entered, quote, the end of history, that every nation would now be a liberal democracy, that the ties formed by trade and by commerce alone would now replace nationhood, that the rules-based global order, an overused term, would now replace the national interest, and that we would now live in a world without borders where everyone became a citizen of the world.
This was a foolish idea that ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons of over 5,000 years of recorded human history.
harder and harder to ignore that the echoes of replacement theory and other racially motivated views are increasingly coming out into the open.
If you apply for a visa to enter the United States and be a student and you tell us that the reason why you're coming to the United States is not just because you want to write op eds, but because you want to participate in movements that are involved in doing things like vandalizing universities, harassing students, taking over buildings, creating a ruckus.
We're not going to give you a visa.
